🛒 Ingredients
- Lamb meat for skewers 300 g · 660 kcal
- Extra virgin olive oil 10 g · 90 kcal
👨🍳 Instructions
- Cut the lamb meat into small, consistent cubes, roughly 1-1.5 cm sides, ensuring a mix of lean meat and some fat for flavor. Thread these cubes tightly onto wooden skewers, typically 7-10 pieces per skewer.
- Preheat a charcoal grill or a ribbed cast-iron pan to very high heat; a traditional *fornacella* works best if available. Lightly brush the grill grates or the prepared arrosticini with extra virgin olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the arrosticini on the hot grill and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, turning frequently, until they are beautifully browned with some charred bits and cooked through but still tender and juicy.
- Immediately remove the arrosticini from the grill, sprinkle generously with coarse salt, and serve piping hot.
